ODBDSLC96 "Heart" Word challenge ~ Mercy~

Happy Saturday all!! I can't believe it has been a week since I posted.  It has been very busy but also very rewarding.  Last weekend we went to Virginia and were able to secure a contract on the house we liked!!!  It is so exciting and yet so scary!!  I know God is in control and I need not worry but starting new is somewhat scary.

Anywho....Today I am here to share this week's Shining the Light challenge at Our Daily Bread Designs.

This week's challenge:

This week the challenge team would like to see your creations using three items, materials, or techniques beginning with three different letters in the word “HEART”.

*Please write the three letters used and the items or techniques used for each letter. 

To make the challenge even more fun, we will be giving out a prize, a $15 gift certificate to be used toward stamps at the Our Daily Bread Designs store!! Entries for the prize must be submitted by Friday, February 17th at 8 a.m. EST. One random winner will be chosen and announced next Saturday. If you are not using ODBD stamps, please do not enter more than once. Additional entries without using ODBD stamps will not be commented on or will they qualify for prizes.

While it is not required to use Our Daily Bread Designs images and sentiments on your creations, we would love to see them if you have them.As a way of recognizing those who do use Our Daily Bread Designs stamps, we will again be choosing 1 to 2 creations to spotlight for our Shining the Light Award.Inorder to qualify for this award, however, you must use Our Daily Bread stamps and have yoursubmission added to Mr. Linky by Friday, February 17th at 8 a.m. EST. If you upload your creations to Splitcoast Stampers or any other online gallery, please use the keyword is ODBDSLC96.
